[BEDA: 7] 200th Blog

Script Frenzy Count: 46.

This is the 200th blog I've written. Well, technically it's not. I've written a few other blogs elsewhere, including a travel blog that I created last year.

However, this is the 200th 'normal' blog.

I moved all my old MySpace blogs -- MySpace being where I first started to blog, over to Blogger in June of 2008. Something that wasn't made all that easy for me to do. I ended up copying and pasting everything and writing in the dates.

I'm glad I did it though, the only regret is not being able to take the old comments with me.

I didn't really start blogging with any intention of carrying on with it, I think I just saw the blog button on MySpace and decided to write what I was doing at that moment in time and now, 200 blogs and 6 years later...

I talked a month or so ago about memories -- video and photos, which give glimpses into my life outside, into the lives of my friends. The blogs are more a glimpse into who I am though.

I wrote my first blog in June of 2005, I was 17 (I turned 18 later that month). I turn 24 this year. I still remember, quite vividly, writing those early blogs. Getting a feel for the format of it all.

Over the 200 blogs, you'll find me pouring out my heart, being a complete and utter dick to people who may or may not have deserved it, rambling on about absolutely nothing in the middle of the night, because my sleep pattern's never been what any one would consider normal. Trying to be funny. Being funny. Turning my hand at some more 'factual blogs' -- giving up on that idea completely.


And I can honestly say I regret nothing. If I was a dick to someone, and I later either changed my opinion on them or didn't even really mean it at the time, I've apologised to those people. Then there are those who I still don't speak to (nor do I care to) because of things I've written here.

This blog, I'm sure, has also seen a lot of ambition. Ideas and plans that may or may not have come to fruition. I've always been a creative person, when I was younger I always liked to draw and doodle and as I've grown, I guess that creative side has moved from pencil and paper to camera and editing software. Not a bad transition. But the creative person in me always has ideas and wants to get those ideas out there. However, the creative person within is always battling with the lazy person within. The non-committal person within, who, doesn't always get things done.

Of course, there are occasions when the creative person is winning out and then time comes along and puts a stop to things. Which is always frustrating.

As far as this blog goes, I'd like to keep writing it for as long as possible. With twitter and facebook, I kind of lost touch for a while. I stopped updating as much. BEDA, despite only being 7 days old now, has given me some new enthusiasm for it though. A lot of them have been short, but short blogs are still blogs, right?
